>Confidential: no
>Severity: serious

>Release: 1.3b2
>Environment:
NT 4.0, Win 95, Microsoft Visual C++ 5.0
>Description:
PR #'s 939, 951, and 1131 are all related to the fact that CGI applications
cannot use Windows Sockets. Apparently (and I have not seen this documented
anywhere... Go Microsoft) you have to set the SystemRoot, COMSPEC, and WINDIR
environment variables for Windows Sockets to work correctly. The patch below
adds these in util_script.c.
